Yeah, beautifully put - I think asking for “proof” of the personal God is akin to asking “what happened before the Big Bang” - it’s an obvious desire we all logically seek to understand, but based on our limited understanding of physics and metaphysics it may take a form we can’t currently comprehend. At least, I have trouble picturing a means by which to demonstrate a personal God to someone asking for proof. People could start performing miracles and an observer could still conceive of a universe with impersonal divinity which could be put to work through some mechanism (i.e. “magic”) - just as an example scenario - it’s almost like the “personal God” starts within us and is projected out into the world, once we open our minds to the possibility, we see the evidence all around us...

You're thinking. It's enough.
